Chapter 152: 152 (Bonus Chapter)

"Hmm, a human? Probably an Elite trainer. I doubt a normal trainer dares to enter the forest... But it is indeed weird that I meet another trainer here." Thought Alex when he heard the warning from Crobat.

In all of Kanto, there are only around 300 Elite trainers who are registered under the Alliance. So it is relatively unlikely for Alex to meet an Elite trainer in this large forest. Although the actual number is probably higher because not every Elite trainer is registered under Alliance. Even then, there should not be more than 500 Elite trainers in all of Kanto.

Although the number of 500 sounds large, it is not enough considering the total number of trainers.

There are more than 10,000 trainers who are officially registered. But according to Alex, this number is bound to be a lot bigger in reality. An Elite trainer is more likely to register with Alliance rather than a normal trainer who does not get any benefits. That's why that this number is so low.

Crobat said in a pressing tone, "He's more than 1200 yards from here and surrounded by 3 Pokémon."

Alex thought, "Hmm... Now it depends on whether I'm ready to take a risk to see if this trainer can bring me advantages."

"Let's start thinking about the worst situations that can happen. The trainer has a too strong Flying / Psychic Pokémon who can prevent my escape and attacks me for whatever reason. He ignores my warning that he will be hunted by the Alliance. Then, he also ignores later my warning of being chased by the Team Rocket and attacks me anyway, and kills me."

Alex, who speculated these worst situations, couldn't help but smile.

"Is there one person who is ready to provoke the Alliance and Team Rocket at the same time in order to kill me? I've been thinking about really ridiculous odds."

"Crobat lead us in his direction," said Alex.

Crobat nodded with his serious face as he led Alex and his other Pokémon in the direction of this trainer.

On the way, Alex saw a few weak Pokémon. But almost all of them ran away immediately when they saw Alex's group.

Alex looked at the info on these Pokémon but didn't find anyone special, so he let these Pokémon run away.

After a minute, Alex saw a man in his late 20s looking at him and his Pokémon.

The man had brown hair, a relatively large nose, and a green suit that gave him good camouflage in the forest. His eyes showed a calm expression as he looked at Alex, who was slowly coming closer.

The calm look and the scar on his cheek made him look like a very experienced Pokémon trainer.

The man had 4 Pokéballs on his Pokébelt.

Usually, trainers only have their 'Main Pokémon' on a Pokébelt, so that they can react quickly in any situation. Most Elite trainers only have between 3 or 4 main Pokémon that they actively train and give valuable items. Only the very strong Elite Trainers or Rich Trainers can afford to train more Pokémon.

The main reason is that it is usually better and more efficient to have 3 Silver Pokémon than 6 Bronze Pokémon. Although it is possible to buy 6 Silver Pokémon, it is too costly for a trainer. Especially when you consider that you still have to spend money on food, TMs, items, and training equipment for each Pokémon.

There are even Elite Trainers who only have 1 or 2 well-trained exceptionally strong Pokémon.

Just like when playing a fighting game, using your most skillful combo is better than using random attacks.

Together with the man, Alex saw three Pokémon who were watching him and his Pokémon carefully.

Alex looked at the information of the three Pokémon.

---------------------------

Alex, who saw this information, didn't quite know whether his expectation was exceeded or not.

Even though the trainer had a Pokémon (Pawniard) with good potential, it was not so good that Alex would look at it very greedily. The difficulty of attacking such an experienced trainer and successfully stealing his Pokémon wasn't worth it for Alex. Especially since Alex didn't really know the full strength and background of this person.

"Though I would try if it was a Deep Gold Pokémon with an evolution left. Only then does it make sense to risk my life."

For an experienced trainer like him to have only 2 Pokémon at this level was really a slight surprise. Although the potential of these Pokémon wasn't that good, Alex didn't think these Pokémon would level up that slowly.

"Hmm, I have to find more good items for Ditto quickly so that I can improve Ditto's potential. Or he will have the same problems as these Pokémon when he reaches the Elite rank. He's already starting to level more slowly than my other Pokémon. I wonder how slowly he will level up when he reaches the Elite level," thought Alex.

Alex ended his thoughts and began to look in the direction of this man.
